Science catching up to God's Word - Age Limit

Science catching up to God's Word - Age Limit

3 And the Lord said, “My Spirit shall not strive[a] with man forever, for he is indeed flesh; yet his days shall be one hundred and twenty years.”

Now science has shown the following:

Two quotes from the article:
"The oldest human to have ever lived died at the age of 122—and that was nearly 20 years ago. A recent analysis of global demographic data suggests this may very well be the maximum age attainable by humans, and that it’s extremely unlikely anyone will ever live much beyond this advanced age."

"molecular geneticist Jan Vijg and his team from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the Bronx make the case that human lifespan has a natural limit, and that we’ll probably never exceed this maximum bound."

The researchers are contemplating the idea of a natural limit of life, and statistics so far point suggest 120 years. The oldest person being 122 years probably fall within statistical error or could even be error in records. Though this limit does not appear to be scientifically conclusive and the scientist still talk about extending life since they do not know about God's limit, it is still interesting in that scientific facts so far do point to God's limit.
